id definantly take the insides as long as they kept the phone this size or maybe a 3.8 or maybe even a 4" screen, but 4.3 is just beyond humungo.... its huge without a keyboard, i could only imagine with, we would literaly have to cary special phone purses...

give me the insides, leave me this shellll....... well leave the battery also that shlty 1230 mah battery, i dont see how 270 mah less than the pro2 on a massive capacitive screen like that will hold on battery life, cause thats a huge factor for me and a huge upgrade from the pro1..........

I don't know... I really like that phone. But I really like my plan with Spirnt. I couldn't leave just for a phone. I love the tp2 and I would be willing to stay with Sprint and wait for the next big thing. I can't believe I am saying that. I'm of first kid on the block mentality.

Rumor or Fact? Leo/HD2 is Sprint Adonis?

Only time will tell. PPCGeeks user boredmug has reported that a Sprint Rep (of unknown status or position) said the HTC Leo/HD2 will be called the Sprint Adonis and will be released around Christmas time.
This doesn’t appear to have been reported anywhere else since all links point back to PPCGeeks, but if the rumor is true, this is great news since the Leo appears to be one of the most sought after phones coming out.
With T-Mobile rumored to be releasing it, this would be a great move for Sprint and could possibly pull people away from the Verizon Wireless Imagio.
We can only wait and hope.

I think HTC should do a form factor like the Treo Pro minus the plastic keypad.

The HTC Dash is not it.

I hate that form factor to be honest. I like the slide out keyboards. Makes devices much smaller and I dont accidentally hit keys in my pocket as much even if the screen is locked lol

Same here, how can you have a decent size screen with a full keyboard right under it, that phone would be long as hell.

It's just like Intel and AMD processors. We could have had 6+ GHz procs years ago, but there's a ton of money to be made by also selling 3, 4, ad 5GHz procs. The ability to give the market something better is already there. But why go from A straight to E when there's all that money to be made in B, C, and D. If you're really estitute you'll notice this business model in just about every industry in some way. Example, the 2004 Nissan Altima didn't have folding side mirrors....the 2005 does. They held off on the mirrors so they would have one more "NEW" item to add to the new model window sticker thus making it look like a better car. Previous generaltions of Altimas had folding mirrors.

In short....every combination of phone will be done before the perfect model sees the light of day.

i really would like to see what the tp3 would look like. Even though I wish better, i'm pretty sure they will not give it a bigger screen, but instead maybe a faster processor and updated tf3d (2.5? 3.0?) possibly a better camera.

They keep the HD with a bigger screen to make people choose. i think it increases sales too.

a sprint tech that works for corp cust. just told me that hd2 is coming to sprint the week of christmas and a tp3 based off the hd2 with wm 7 is coming in april it has all the goodies of hd2 with better battery and a sliding keyboard and a 4.3" screen Im surprised none of this info has leaked yet.

Disclaimer: I know all the haters are going to say what ever this info is made up and what not but im telling you this is going to happen.

I LOVE my TP2 (with Mighty ROM) but if I could buy a phone with a bigger capacitive screen I would buy it tomorrow. I really love the way the screen on my ipod touch reacts & zooms & I really want the biggest screen I can get.

I could care less about the hardware KB, I never use it anyway (I use TouchPal 3.5 with T+ which is WAY faster than typing on any hardware KB)
